I need help with a routes issue with devise authentication gem to redirect to a custom page after successful login so as to create a new record by entering a test person name and age ( test data )
I am using Rails 3 with devise version 1.4.9
My routes are as below
new_user_session GET /users/sign_in(.:format) {:action=>"new", :controller=>"devise/sessions"}
user_session POST /users/sign_in(.:format) {:action=>"create", :controller=>"devise/sessions"}
destroy_user_session DELETE /users/sign_out(.:format) {:action=>"destroy", :controller=>"devise/sessions"}
user_password POST /users/password(.:format) {:action=>"create", :controller=>"devise/passwords"}
new_user_password GET /users/password/new(.:format) {:action=>"new", :controller=>"devise/passwords"}
edit_user_password GET /users/password/edit(.:format) {:action=>"edit", :controller=>"devise/passwords"}
PUT /users/password(.:format) {:action=>"update", :controller=>"devise/passwords"}
cancel_user_registration GET /users/cancel(.:format) {:action=>"cancel", :controller=>"devise/registrations"}
user_registration POST /users(.:format) {:action=>"create", :controller=>"devise/registrations"}
new_user_registration GET /users/sign_up(.:format) {:action=>"new", :controller=>"devise/registrations"}
edit_user_registration GET /users/edit(.:format) {:action=>"edit", :controller=>"devise/registrations"}
PUT /users(.:format) {:action=>"update", :controller=>"devise/registrations"}
DELETE /users(.:format) {:action=>"destroy", :controller=>"devise/registrations"}
testers GET /testers(.:format) {:action=>"index", :controller=>"testers"}
POST /testers(.:format) {:action=>"create", :controller=>"testers"}
new_tester GET /testers/new(.:format) {:action=>"new", :controller=>"testers"}
edit_tester GET /testers/:id/edit(.:format) {:action=>"edit", :controller=>"testers"}
tester GET /testers/:id(.:format) {:action=>"show", :controller=>"testers"}
PUT /testers/:id(.:format) {:action=>"update", :controller=>"testers"}
DELETE /testers/:id(.:format) {:action=>"destroy", :controller=>"testers"}
root / {:controller=>"testers", :action=>"index"}
In applications controller i tried to override the method like below but to no avail i still get routed back to tester index
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
protect_from_forgery
def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
new_tester_path
end
end
In my routes.rb file i have the below lines
Testing::Application.routes.draw do
devise_for :users
resources :testers
root :to => 'testers#index'
While much of the code was done with scaffolding I was still not be able to figure how to redirect to new_tester_path or route /testers/new after successful sign_in by user email and password.
Can someone please let me know what i am missing..... while writing the override function, I would like to know the exact route i need to specify.
While testing i tried something stupid like this but the google page is also not opening ... :(
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
protect_from_forgery
helper ApplicationHelper
def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
"www.google.com"
end
def after_sign_up_path_for(resource)
"www.google.com"
end
def after_update_path_for(resource)
"www.google.com"
end
Just use this snippet:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
def after_sign_in_path_for(user)
user_url(user)
end
end
Try setting user_return_to path in session:
session['user_return_to'] = new_tester_path
You can do it in a controller derived from Devise::SessionsController
